I was one week late... I was almost blinded by the forceps, I had kidney failure and also had jaundice 1 week after I was born.

But hey, I'm still here!

Aww bless you! Wow! For back then, you were a real miracle baby! Even now, survival at 24 weeks is only around 65%...

I was born bang on time, be it arse first :biggrin:

I think I had a 50/50 chance or maybe even less than that. That was in 1986 too so I would hope things are better now :biggrin:

Higher survival rates etc.

Even less than that... In 1995, English and Welsh data showed a survival rate of 34% at 24 weeks, Scottish data showed 27%...

i was on time, i think a few days early.. my mum wrote a baby diary, in which she says "am expecting about ten hours of labour". Oh well, lucky her, once she got to the hospital - they had a blizzard the night I was born, march 8th that is! - it was only about twenty more minutes until i popped out *g*

and the weirdest thing is that this year, on my 18th, we had this massive amount of snow again *G*

I was taken out by c section on 20th December, was due on the 20 something of January, weighed 5 pounds and stayed in the hospital 5 days.

Would I have been underdeveloped?

I was born right on time, but I was induced. Both my sisters were two weeks early though which I was pleased about coz the youngest one was due on my birthday

about 6 weeks early, Im not sure if I have any complications beacuse of it though, apart from being a bit looney but that was probably due to my uprbringing

I was three weeks early, but my birth was a pre-made appointment because I was a breech cesearian. This was quite useful as my dad was able to get the time off work.

I was two weeks early. My brother was on time, and my sister was two weeks late. In that order :smile:

I was a month early and the hospital wouldn't let my mum see me because they thought I would die.

I sure proved them wrong.

4 weeks early- on, accordin to my mum, the 2nd august at quarter to midnight. however because of something at the hospital which meant if i was born on this day i would have to stay in for ages, they put me as 3rd august. accordin 2 ma dad ma mum was so doped up she don't have a clue what she's on about. she lost loadsa blood, and even though i was so early i was still 7 1/2 pounds so if i was born on time i woulda been massive! with ma bruv it was a c-section.
